Kickstarter Friday!!
Some Campaigns I Think Are Worth Backing Or Studying Or Both!
I do this every Friday when I have a few campaigns I think are worth putting here.
I will not say much negative about a campaign. If there is too much or it is going to fail, I won’t post it here.
And for those wondering where I get off judging Kickstarter Campaigns by fiction writers, I have now done 59 of them, every one funded and made money. My first campaign was in the very early days of Kickstarter. But if yoy are going to study campaigns that I have done, study the last year or so. I am continuing to learn.
And like some people browse and waste time on Facebook, I browse and waste time looking at campaigns on Kickstarter.
New This Week…
The Thief of Numbers: A Dystopian DELUXE Edition Hardcover by Kay Kenyon
A Rebel Heroine, AI Ruling Lord, and Timeless Love in a New Silver Foil Special Edition Novel from acclaimed world-builder Kay Kenyon.
Kay is an amazing writer and this book will be really worth reading for that alone. This campaign is very well done, with a ton of details about everything and somewhere in there I am sure there are details about the kitchen sink. Wow, lots of details. And a ton of great art. Study it and back it.

Skyship Pirate: Book Two of the Clockwork Kingdom Saga by Brigid Collins
A swashbuckling, high-flying fantasy adventure, lots of ladies with attitude, and a friends to lovers tale featuring an ace character.
This campaign offers book one if you missed it combined with book two, and Brigid is one of the best fantasy writers working, so you can’t go wrong with this series. And some great art as well. This is really worth backing and studying on how to do a really good campaign at this level.
